Christian Piano Teacher Offering Internet Lessons
My wife, Heather Ross, has availability to take some new piano students. She has taught piano for many years with many students successfully using their skills for the glory of God. When we were in Wisconsin, she was already teaching students over the Internet for students from Bethel Baptist Church in El Sobrante, CA, and Carson River Baptist Church, in Carson City, Nevada. Please note her description (very slightly edited) of her music ministry below:
earned my Masters in Education in 2014 and partnering with a local
music academy between 2015 and 2018, I continue to add new skills,
implement tested methodology, and discover students’ individual
strengths as I work to help them become the best musicians and
individuals they can be. Throughout my years of teaching, I have
experimented with various methods and have discarded those which have
not proven to be a positive focus of energy in the lesson time.
believe children learn by doing and, when given clearly laid out plans
and directed down a productive path, every child will be successful no
matter what his / her natural ability. I invite parents to sit in on any
lesson. You will find that instruction time is used efficiently;
specific objectives are used to maximize instruction; students are
encouraged multiple times during each lesson and individuals leave
feeling encouraged to do their best as they create beautiful music with
their hands and hearts.
I have been taking lessons with Heather
for almost 3 years and it has significantly improved my piano playing. I
started as an adult learner and was stuck “in a groove” when I started
lessons with Heather. She has helped me to learn more technical skills
to play piano more efficiently and with more ease. She is extremely
experienced and knowledgeable, so if you’re looking for the best, look
no further. I have recommended her to my niece, sister-in-law, and
mother-in-law. If you are looking for classical and/or hymns piano
teacher, Heather is an excellent choice.
Heather is a very patient and
encouraging teacher who seeks to bring out the best in your child. She
is always finding ways to better herself as a teacher and to help your
child reach their full potential. My child was challenged through her
teaching and made great progress. Highly recommend her.
Heather teaches my daughter via Google
Hangouts. It always amazes me the technicality she can see over the
internet. She knows if my daughter is tense, bending her knuckle wrong
or doesn’t have her fingers on the right part of the keys. Heather is a
patient and talented teacher and we are grateful to have her at our
disposal.
Her solid musical training and education, coupled with her years
of experience have proven to be a great help for numerous piano
students. Heather Is well capable of helping students of all different
levels in their musical skills.
I have received help from Heather for
specific pieces that are “beyond me” and she has always been able to
communicate the best way to learn the piece. I have also observed her
teaching young piano students and have been impressed with her ability
to help each student improve and strive for their very best!
I really enjoyed taking lessons from
Heather. She provided many fun incentives to reward practicing and help
me reach goals. I appreciated that before she pointed out something I
needed to correct that week, she first gave positive words about what I
had accomplished that week in my practicing. I also appreciated her
emphasis on theory–(learning chords, cadences, scales, arpeggios),
playing by ear, and improvising. She provided me with a great classical
foundation and helped me develop into an advanced pianist before
entering college and furthering my pianistic development.
If you are looking for a teacher who
cares about her students and wants there best, Heather is a wonderful
option! She is very experienced, knowledge, and a phenomenal piano
player! I had several piano teachers as a little girl, but I had the
privilege of taking piano lessons from Heather during my high school
years. None of my prior teachers developed me in piano at the rate that
Heather did. She knows how to motivate students to not just “get by” but
encourages them to achieve their best. Definitely recommend her!
My son has been taking piano lessons
from Heather for several years now. I am so pleased with how much I have
seen him progress in his skill as a result of her teaching. She
challenges and encourages him to do his best and master each new piece. I
also like how she takes the time to plan recitals at local senior
living facilities so that her students can learn to use their talents to
be a blessing an encouragement to others. I would recommend her to
anyone looking for a quality piano teacher who will really invest the
time into your child to see him or her become a the best piano player
that they can be!

Heather is a very dedicated, loving, and experienced teacher. I
know I learned so much through her piano teaching. She doesn’t simply
teach for a pay check, but to see each of her students fully developed
in piano And all other areas of life!!
